I am not sure if this is necessary under Linux. My /tmp and /var/tmp
uses 3 MB altogether. Nothing compared to the size of a cache in a
browser.

So I am really not sure if Linux resp. Fedora needs a tweaking like
that.

And by changing configuration files in /etc it is very useful to have
older versions if you want to go back to a previous configuration.

Only /home/user/.thumbnails is using up some space, so that might be
worth a try (but I am not sure what is needed by gnome in the session).

After long years of using Windows-programs my experience with Linux and
Fedora is, that this system does not need that kind of tweaking and
twisting, because it is very efficient with its ressources. Mainly
because the architecture is completely different to the architecture of
a Windows system.
